It offers beautiful scenery and lots of wildlife to seek out. Although this trip is conducted in Deception Pass State Park we avoid the turbulent water near the bridge which is more suitable for expert kayakers. If you plan to visit Deception Pass State Park then don't miss this wonderful opportunity to see it from the unique perspective of a sea kayak!

Took the bioluminescence Tour, you paddle out of the bay to catch the sunset, watch porpoise feed in the outgoing tide, and wait for dark. Once the sun goes down, back into the bay and start splashing around to light up the bioluminescence algae. You feel like a kid splashing in the bathtub :) It's a little eerie but also peaceful being out in the ocean at night on a kayak but they have the system down. Everyone wears glow lights which is fun to see dancing across the water. The guides were fantastic, very informative, and easy to work with. Already planning a group for next year.

Megan helped find someone to join me in the kayak as they only go in double kayaks for this particular trip. Cora was an excellent guide. The scenery was beautiful - a great introduction to the Deception Pass area1

The kayaking was beautiful and loved the information about the park and nature provided by the guide. Even with a light rain, the views were beautiful
